"The life of the body is the soul; the life of the soul is God."
-St. Anthony of Padua
St. Anthony of Padua was a famous preacher and teacher- and is probably best known for helping those searching for lost things! He was a very smart but humble man, and his gift of preaching was found by accident (more like providence!). His expert knowledge of scripture is why he also has the special title of Doctor of the Church. A shining example of greatness and humility all in one Saint!

Teach your children about spreading the Good News! Introduce the story of St. Anthony of Padua using the educational insert in the box. Encourage children to consider the different ways in which God calls us to share his message with others. St. Anthony was called to be a great preacher and teacher- what skills do we have? Great for opening discussions about the gifts we have, how each saint is unique and called to serve God in a different way, and why certain saints have special patronages (why is St. Anthony the patron saint of lost items? His very special book full of notes for his preaching and teaching was stolen, but when he prayed, it was miraculously returned!).
